The STA software > supports most of AP already. The last statement I read was: "haven't found a way to properly transmit multicast frames after DTIM". Does this still apply on the new STA firmware?

That will be a "nice" job... :) Another silly question: You wrote that 802.11n works with the firmware, and I blindly assumed that this of course includes a/b/g. I was right? My current AP works in g-mode when association with the ar9170 fails... Thanks so far, Jan
